Once a man, always a man
That's what she said to me
Hard to tell how it could feel right now
King street in the rain
Past walks by in your head a hundred times
Can't cast it away
It will hold you down, pull your head right to the ground
I let ghosts fade away
Think back on a time you lived long ago
And you let it float away
She goes on doing things you can't forget
Lives her day to day
Past walks by in your head a hundred times
Can't cast it away
It will hold you down, pull your head right to the ground
I let ghosts fade away
All this waiting
Through all these changes
All this waiting
For all this change
Autumn leaves are falling in my state of mind
Children off at play
But I would give up all of those golden times
To be right here today
Past walks by in your head a thousand times
Can't cast it away
It will hold you down, pull your head right to the ground
I let ghosts fade away
